Initial analysis

This two-unit residential building at 2733 N Sheffield Ave, managed by Navesink Property Management, has been in operation since 1872 and is located in the Sheffield & DePaul neighborhood. The property's recent history shows relatively minimal issues, with a total of six 311 service requests logged over the past seven years, including some routine urban maintenance matters such as a dead animal pick-up, snow-cleared sidewalk complaints, e-scooter parking issues, graffiti removal requests, and a rodent baiting complaint. The most significant recent incident was a noise complaint filed in January 2024, which was resolved within two days. The building's environmental complaints record is notably sparse, with only one incident recorded in the past seven years. Looking further back, two administrative code violations were documented in August 2007, each carrying a $300 fine, though these cases are now closed. The building's overall record suggests a history of typical urban neighborhood issues, with no major recurring problems or severe incidents affecting resident experience or safety in recent years.

Risk rating

How 2733 N Sheffield Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Chicago code enforcement data — building violations, 311 complaint history, environmental enforcement, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that the City of Chicago will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
